Today was a bit disappointing. Wayne and I got to chemo on time and the blood draw was quick and a painful because they had to basically take it out of my knuckle. We got in for treatment right on time, which was very exciting.
Unfortunately, the moment that the nurse saw my finger nails she said, "I don't think we can do chemo today." So she went and grabbed my Oncology Nurse and low and behold the decision was made that there would be no chemo today and that we can't do anymore chemo until my finger nails and my toe nails heal.
So today was only Avastin and a flu shot. I will watch my fingers and toes to see if they heal and I will keep the hospital posted on my progress. If things look good in a week or two I may have a chemo treatment, but if not I will have another treatment of Avastin in two weeks.
It may sound strange, but I was really looking forward to starting and finishing this round of chemo so this little set back is a bummer. However, feeling good for another week or two is a gift...YEAH feeling good.
I'll keep you posted on the healing process of my fingers and toes. I'm hoping they heal quickly.
You continue to be my strength and help keep me...keeping on!
Lots of love,
Maria
